Description

This Sunday School class was given by J. Pittman McGehee, D.D. on 6/18/1989. (scratchy in places but very worth hearing anyway). Pittman describes the biblical story of David and Bathsheba which is about our instinctual human nature and the unconditional love God has for us. This complex story because involves eros, sexuality and forgiveness and has both a subjective and objective truth simultaneously. It reveals the way even when the outer world mores and ethical values would condemn David, that all things worked together for good. {Amen is his last word but the mp3 provided had cut it off.)
